§ Mr. McDonnellTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what were the appraisal performance markings awarded to civil servants in 1998 for(a) each agency in his Department and (b) the Department broken down by (i) grade, (ii) gender, (iii) ethnicity, (iv) part-time/full-time working and (v) disability; and for (1) each agency and (2) the Department whether the Cabinet Office's four fifths rule for detecting potential adverse impact was applied to the appraisal markings of civil servants in the 1998 report round. [78151]
§ Mr. MudieThe 1998 performance markings for the DfEE and for the Employment Service are shown in the following tables. At Senior Civil Service level (former Grade 5 and above) no distinction is made between staff in the DfEE and those in the Employment Service. Because of the small numbers involved at Senior Civil Service level, a breakdown of performance markings by grade, ethnicity, part-time/full-time working and disability would breach individual confidentiality and therefore cannot be provided.
The DfEE and the ES undertake tests that go further than the four fifths rule by proceeding directly to a full statistical analysis of the data to determine which differences observed are statistically significant.
